MASSAGE FOR MY PET – YOU’VE GOT TO BE KIDDING, RIGHT? This might be your reaction when you first hear about small animal massage therapy. Many of us consider our pets to be an important part of our family. We do everything we can to ensure their overall good health – a healthy diet, regular veterinary care and plenty of play time and exercise. Massage therapy, when done by a professionally trained practitioner, is not just glorified petting or pampering. It’s a gentle, non-invasive technique that has many real benefits for maintaining or improving your pet’s health. Some of the benefits of massage are reduced pain and stiffness in muscles and joints, greater range of motion and improved muscle tone. Massage therapy can also help reduce your pet’s stress and anxiety – and it promotes a feeling of overall well-being. Whether your dog has a service related job, takes part in agility, herding trials or other physical activities – or just hangs out around the house they can benefit from regular massage therapy.

Contact Massage Four Paws today to schedule an appointment – then start noticing the difference. Since pets are more relaxed in their own environment, all massage sessions are conducted in the comfort of your pet’s home. I offer massage sessions in 30 minute and 45 minute sessions. Discounts are available for multiple pets in the same household and for purchasing multiple session packages.

Massage Four Paws is a mobile service working in Hillsboro, Beaverton, Bethany, Lake Oswego, Forest Grove and the other towns and cities in the Portland metro area.

I’m Karen Kudasik, a certified small animal practitioner, and received my training and certification from The Northwest School of Animal Massage. You might also be familiar with me because I’ve been working with my clients and their pets in the metro area as a pet sitter and dog walker as Best Friend Petsitting since 1998. Animals have always been a passion in my life and I’m very excited to be offering small animal massage in addition to my pet sitting services.
